Alex C:
The only macro I'd see myself using with boomkins would be trinket related again. About the only macros I'd use as a druid would be Nature's Swiftness related, really. Everything else and I'd rather go with the finer degree of control route.

I don't use any addons because I felt like I should play the game as it was meant to be played - at least on my first character and I don't use any macros yet, principally because I can't be bothered figuring out how to work them but once I hit 71 I will make a "Fuck You!" botton (instant cast pyroblast at 130% damage with increased spell power and an extra 30% chance to crit)
as a mage trying to level in outland I have one thing to say: Deathknights can all go get fucked. Death grip is ridiculous. not only rival hunters for "oops were you trying to cast fireball, too bad it's my kill now" but it has at least twice stolen my kill when I've already tagged it. admittedly it is ten kinds of useful for pulling in dungeons and an excellent way of dealing with runners - it's quite funny to be a caster standing away from the main fight (3 deathknights and god knows how many orcs in Blood Furnace) then see one orc leave the clusterfuck get about 5 steps only to have a purple string shoot out of what I can't help but think of as the kids cartoon dustclouds that appear whenever there's a fight and pull him straight back into the fray. This however doesn't change the fact that it's just too damn good at kill stealing give it a three second cast time and it might be ok
And please, blizzard, hire someone with original ideas and stop giving away classes special tricks - first you give hunters and mages a version of Steath then you give shamys Hex (basically pollymorph frog but it only lasts 20 seconds) if you keep this up you'll have no problems balancing the classes because they'll all be completely the same.
Jamie if you think the baby blizzard bear is the cutest pet ever you clearly haven't seen the sprite darter hatchling - I'll get a screenshot of it.
PizzaSHARK:
Considering Blizzard steals the best addon ideas and turns them into crappy versions of the same, I'd say the game is "meant" to be played with OR without mods :P
Simple fact is that a handful of specific mods can massively increase your efficiency in-game, though. Ex: I can't imagine being able to successfully compete in arenas without Proximo, can't imagine tanking (or DPSing) without Omen, etc.
Alex C:
Yeah, fireball has a travel time so it's possible to get the spell off yet not actually deal damage just as the mob gets pulled in by death grip. Add in the long range and instant cast, and it's a pretty sweet ability. Still, kill stealing is basically the worst reason for nerfing anything in the history of the universe. I mean, really, from the perspective of kill stealing it's really not all that much different from what Mages and Shamans have been doing since release with Shocks and Fireblast.
axerton:
No, I honest to god have tagged things- like hit them with fireball and slow then the DK Death Grips and the mob goes gray. But DKs need to be taken down a peg or two in general I dueled one 3 levels lower than me and it had me down to less than a quarter health before I knew what was happening.
